Event Transportation: Make “Getting There” Half the Fun

Speaker: Skipp Lowell, Pro Limo 

The way that transportation is designed and executed can have a major impact on event success. When you move a large group of people, having an efficient transportation plan is of the upmost importance. Whether it be a business convention, corporate event or even a wedding, the transportation plan is a key element in hosting a successful event. Putting together an event transportation plan is much more involved than just bringing in some resources. Every element of the transportation needs to be carefully planned and vetted, otherwise serious problems could crop up that would ruin the integrity of the event. Join Skipp Lowell, “People Mover Pro,” with Pro Limo while he discusses how to prepare a transportation plan and what you need to avoid to make your transportation plan work.

Key Take-Aways:

  • Basic steps to aid in coordinating event transportation from vehicle load times,  vehicle clearance and staging areas to safety requirements and on-site coordination.
  • How to choose the right transportation company and vehicles for your style of event.
  • How to easily communicate your needs to any transportation company.
